Secure Email Gateways provide predelivery protection by blocking email based threats before they reach a mail server, whether on-premise or on Office 365 / G-Suite. They protect businesses from spam, viruses, malware and denial of service attacks. The gateway scans all incoming, outbound and internal email communications, including attachments and URLs for signs of malicious or harmful content.

Email Gateways will also offer protection from social engineering attacks such as phishing, or business email compromise. The gateway can check the domain of incoming emails, as well as scan for suspicious content within the email, to stop harmful content from coming into the network. Emails that have been marked as malicious are quarantined or rejected. Some systems allow the quarantined emails to be accessed by admins if necessary.

Secure Email Gateways work as a collection of different technologies that work together to block email threats. They work as a firewall for email communications, enforcing a set of rules about what email can enter or leave your email network. They scan all inbound and outbound malicious emails, to stop malicious content from entering your employees inboxes.

They also offer features such as virus and malware blocking, spam filtering, content filtering and email archiving. Secure Email Gateways can be based on multiple cloud based architectures. The products featured in this category are based on virtual appliances, public cloud, or hybrid based architectures. This means that they are all cloud-based, filtering email traffic through a cloud platform. Using a cloud based architecture simplifies deployment and management, with no hardware needed to install or maintain the email gateway.
